What an Adventure! I planned to sail to the edge of Lake Alexandrina from Goolwa. All went well on the way to Clayton and beyond, with only a couple of tacks necessary and a NE wind which was forecast for several hours. When I came back, the wind switched to NW (not forecast) and it began to drop. Through the cliff section East of Clayton, I had to tack a lot to get through, the cliffs were channeling the wind WNW making progress very slow. Once through there it was a little better for a short time until the wind died to about 5-8knots. I putted back off the plane for a couple of hours! I'll try again another time but do it on a day when the forecasted wind period is longer. This would be much easier if I had a foil!
